Main Aims

  • Identify and understand future-related phrases in real veterinary speech

Subsidiary Aims

  • Practice listening for “will” and present continuous in context

Procedure

Warmer/Lead-in (8-10 minutes) • To set lesson context and engage students

Activity: Clinic Clock Talk Display a photo of a veterinary schedule or clipboard. Ask students: -What’s happening at 9:00?- “What might they say if they want to change this schedule?- Instructor elicits student guesses and boards key time-related phrases: → -at 10 o’clock,- -this afternoon,- -after lunch,- -later today-

While-Reading/Listening #1 (23-25 minutes) • To provide students with less challenging gist and specific information reading/listening tasks

First Listening (with subtitles) Play a short clip Students look for: Uses of “will” and present continuous Time expressions (at, before, then, after that) Second Listening (no subtitles) Distribute transcript. Pair Check + Class Review Ask: “Which expressions were used for future? Were any tasks decided during the conversation?”

While-Reading/Listening #2 (18-20 minutes) • To provide students with more challenging detailed, deduction and inference reading/listening tasks

Clinic Planning Puzzle (20 mins) Set-up: Students work in pairs with fictional clinic schedules. Task: Fill in missing gaps by asking each other questions using -will- and -is/are ___ing- Example questions: -Who’s taking care of the lab results?- -Is anyone examining the cat in Room 2?- -Will you be free after 3?- Goal: Fill all missing appointments correctly and write a short plan using 3 “will” + 2 present continuous sentences.

Post-Reading/Listening (3-5 minutes) • To provide with an opportunity to respond to the text and expand on what they've learned

Quick Discussion: What phrase from today could you use tomorrow at your clinic? Which expression sounded most natural to you? Board 2–3 highlights and clarify differences in meaning if needed.
